Women have a reputation as being hard to buy for, but nothing can be harder than buying a great gift for a great guy. When people don't know what kind of gift to get for a fella, they tend to fall back into the old standards of cologne and ties - something that most men have more than enough of to last them several lifetimes over.

There are a good number of gifts for guys that will make a wonderful present. If your guy loves playing poker, consider giving him a new set of poker chips or even better, plan a get together for him and set up a poker table and have everyone around the table ready to play and then present his new chips in a gorgeous boxed set. He'll love it!

If your favorite fella is gadget happy, you can't go wrong giving him one of the original gadgets on the market in the form of a Victorinox Swiss Army Rescue Tool. Packed in a slender style that is just over 4 inches long, this emergency tool comes jam-packed full of useful items such as a large locking blade, a Phillips screwdriver, a window breaker, combination screwdriver and crate opener, cap lifter, wire stripper, combination punch and reamer, seat belt cutter, key ring, tweezers, toothpick and a disc saw for shatterproof glass. The handles are luminescent and there is even a handy nylon pouch to keep this knife stashed away in a glove box or he can use it often and let it attach to his work belt via a small nylon cord. You can have a small message engraved on the blade so he knows this gift was made especially for him.

A cigar and liquor flask set will make an ideal gift for the gentleman that enjoys a relaxing puff on a good quality cigar and perhaps a little nip after a meal. If you want to make your gift even more special, consider personalizing the cigar tube and the flask with up to 18 characters of your own special message or just your guy's initials.

For the man that already has a good cigar tube, the gift of a box of cigars won't go unappreciated. A good cigar after a meal is dessert for many gentlemen and giving him the ability to load up a couple of cigar holders to take out with him as well as have a good stash at home makes a great gift for your guy.

Use these tips and get your guy something besides yet another tie for his birthday, Father's Day or a "just because" gift - just because he's your special guy!
